Fruits Basket Fan Fiction ❯ Feeling This ❯ Eavesdropping @_@ ( Chapter 9 )

Chapter 9

 

 

Yuki slowly walked towards the bed and stopped just a few feet away from Kyo. Kyo stood up, and turned to see Yuki. `Oh, great…' thought Kyo. Yuki glared at Kyo, and then turned to see a pink Torhu. `Well, at least she's awake…' thought Yuki angrily.

“Are you all right…he didn't DO anything… did he?” asked Yuki suspiciously. Torhu shook her head frantically and got up. She nearly fell over, but Yuki caught her. For a few seconds, he stared at her face. Then he let her go and turned to leave.

“Hey,” called Kyo. “She was asleep… you should call Hatori.”

“Right…” answered Yuki calmly. He stepped out of the room and down the hall. `I'll need to find out what happened.' He thought as he picked up the phone and dialed.

“Hello, Hatori speaking.”

“Hi, yes its Yuki…Torhu woke up.” He said into the receiver.

“I'll be there in a few minutes…” answered Hatori before hanging up. Yuki put the phone down and walked down towards the kitchen. `Might as well tell Shigure…' he thought. When he walked in the kitchen, he found Shigure drinking tea quietly. `He's up to something…' thought Yuki (sweat drop -_-`)

“I was thinking…” said Shigure smirking at Yuki. “Perhaps…when Torhu wakes up, we should throw a party for her…”

“Well, now's your chance…” answered Yuki quietly.

“She woke up?!” exclaimed Shigure jumping up and spilling his tea.

“Yes…”

“When…how?!”

“I'm afraid I don't know the details, you'll have to ask the stupid cat. You see, I walked in on him…kissing her…” Yuki hoped Shigure would get mad at Kyo, but it was the opposite.

“Ohh, goody! It's about time SOMEONE made a move… how very sleeping beauty-ish! Wouldn't you say?!” asked Shigure poking Yuki in the ribs.

“I'll have to find all the details… maybe I'll convince Haa to let me hear the interrogation…”

“I don't have the slightest idea about what you're saying.” Said Yuki watching Shigure walk up the stairs, still talking to himself.

 

~Meanwhile~

 

“Torhu…” asked Kyo worriedly staring at a very pink Torhu. He grinned. “You're pink.”

“Um… I'm sorry… that was very forward of me… I apologize.” She said bowing her head.

“For what?” he asked bluntly.

“For… um… kissing you…” she said turning dark red.

“Well, you don't have to apologize. I kissed you first. Besides, I li-“ he was cut off by Shigure bouncing through the door.

“Aha! He yelled pointing a finger at Kyo accusingly. So you did kiss her! You scoundrel! Kissing my new housewife, and in her sleep. Pack your bags and leave at once you… you… KYO!” yelled Shigure at Kyo.

“What the hell are you talking about?!” asked Kyo angrily. “It's none of your damn business what I do! And stop calling her your housewife! And I ain't leaving!” he yelled defensively. Torhu stood and grabbed onto Kyo's sleeve and said:

“Please Shigure… I was the one who kissed Kyo… please don't make him leave… I'm sorry…” she bowed her head and a tear trickled down her cheek. Shigure gasped.

“See! You've made her cry!” he said accusingly at Kyo. Then he kneeled and said:

“Ohh, my sweet flower! It pains me to see you cry. There there, no more tears! I will let the brute stay!” he proclaimed while patting her back.

“Hehem.” Hatori stared at the scene in front of him. Shigure was patting Torhu's back. Torhu was sniffling and clinging to Kyo's arm, while Kyo looked at Shigure slightly annoyed. Yuki stood next to Hatori, in shock. He gasped when he saw Torhu clinging to Kyo's arm.

“Hehem.” Hatori cleared his throat again, a little louder this time. They all turned around and stopped what they were doing. Torhu let go of Kyo's arm, Kyo turned around to hide his face from Yuki, and Shigure stood… he opened his arms wide and walked towards Hatori…

“Haa!” he exclaimed happily. Hatori braced himself… Shigure wrapped his arms around Hatori while Hatori rolled his eyes. Yuki stared.

“I have a… favor to ask of you…” said Shigure letting Hatori go.

“Right… but first I have to see if Torhu is alright…”

“NO!” exclaimed Shigure. “I need to see you in the kitchen first.” He grabbed Hatori's hand and dragged him towards the kitchen.

Yuki meanwhile walked towards Torhu, grabbed her hand and kissed it gently. Kyo watched angrily as Yuki smirked.

“I'm glad you're all right… Torhu.” Said Yuki. Torhu smiled warmly and then gasped.

“Ohh. Yuki! Thank you… that was beautiful. Please, say it again!”

“I'm glad you're all right?” asked Yuki as Kyo's eyes widened.

“No, you said my name… please, could you say it again?!” she asked excitedly. Her face was bright pink and her smile was radiant.

“Yes… yes, Torhu. Torhu!” he said happily as Kyo watched. She smiled and Yuki placed a kiss on her cheek. “Torhu…” he whispered. Taking her hand, “you should get some rest. Lie down.” He said leading her to her bed and tucking her in. Kyo gawked. His jaw dropped. `He's trying to get back at me!' Kyo thought angrily. `That damn rat!' yuki walked toward him, brought his hand up to Kyo's jaw, and slammed in shut.

“It's impolite to stare with your jaw wide open.” Said yuki smartly as Kyo clenched his fist. Just then Hatori came into the room.

“Yuki, could you leave for a minute… I need to have a word with Torhu and Kyo about what happened.” Yuki nodded and went outside. He shut the door behind him. Shigure came running. There was a large lump on his head.

“Are they in there?” he asked in a low whisper. When yuki nodded, he brought up a small glass and kneeled down, he placed the mouth of the glass on the door, and his ear on the glass. And he listened.

 

“What happened exactly?” asked Hatori directing the question mainly at Kyo. “I need the details…” he said when he noticed Kyo wasn't just going to answer.

“well, I came in to see if she was okay, I kissed her, she woke up.”

“I'm going to need more than that.” Said Hatori seriously.

“Well, I don't know what to tell you!” snapped Kyo rolling his eyes angrily.

“Well, was she asleep when you came in?”

“Yes.”

“Did you notice anything different about the position she was in? And differences in the breathing?”

“No.”

“Did she respond to the kiss?” asked Hatori cautiously. Kyo blushed. “I need to know…” said Hatori.

 

Shigure sniggered behind the door.

“What's so funny?” asked yuki suspiciously.

“Oh, this is good… haa asked if torhu responded to the kiss…” yuki looked down at the glass. Shigure noticed and pulled out another from his yukata. He handed it to yuki.

`How could I sink so low as to eavesdrop?' Thought yuki taking the glass and pressing it against the door.

 

“Do you really need to know that?!” asked Kyo angrily. He was still blushing. Then Hatori turned to torhu who was about as red as a tomato.

“Yes.” Replied Hatori.

“Err… fine. Y-e-s.” he said pronouncing every letter instead of the word as a whole. Hatori nodded blushing slightly himself. Kyo turned around to face torhu. She wouldn't look him in the eye.

“Torhu…” he was about to ask if she was all right when Hatori cut in:

“Could you leave for a few minutes, I need to check and see if she's alright.”

“Yeah…” said Kyo opening the door.

 

Yuki heard someone coming; he quickly got up and ran to his room. Put when Kyo opened the door, Shigure fell flat against Kyo's shoes.

“You bastard! Were you eavesdropping?!”

“N-no. No! Don't be silly!' yelled Shigure hiding the glass behind his back. Kyo closed the door.

“You're gonna regret that… but because I'm in a good mood today I'll give you a head start.”

“Really?!” asked Shigure nervously.

“No.” answered Kyo grinning evilly. Shigure gulped.

 

“Right. I'll have to fix Shigure up after this… (-__-;) So let's make this quick.” Said Hatori beginning the check up.
